Abstract

A theory of spin-orbit coupling in bilayer graphene is presented. The electronic band structure of the AB bilayer in the presence of spin-orbit coupling and a transverse electric field is calculated from first principles using the linearized augmented plane-wave method implemented in the wien2k code. The first-principles results around the K points are fitted to a tight-binding model. The main ...
